My implementations of the DES and SKIPJACK cryptographic algorithms for the PIC microcontrollers are now publicly available under the terms of the FSF General Public License from my web site: http://www.brouhaha.com/~eric/pic/ If you have any interest in this, I'd suggest getting a copy while the getting is good. There is no telling how long conditions will favor free distribution of this material. Potential commercial users should note that the GPL does not prohibit commercial use of this code. However, many companies find the GPL's requirement to distribute source code of anything linked to GPL'd code to be onerous. If you want to use this code commercially without being bound to the GPL terms, contact me to negotiate a different license. Eric
